I mean, the key part of that sentence was Dunkey. Its kind of funny too because I now feel similar about Dunkey as I do Smith. They did that one persona REALLY WELL, but its just one persona, and eventually it gets old
Agreed, I used to really like Dunkey, then i watched his videos on Death Stranding after immensely enjoying the game myself and found them a little played up for content while painting the gameplay in a less than generous light.
That being said, I do realize it’s a persona, and even his “reviews” are called dunkviews, and at times he does certainly have some nice insight, and he’s funny for certain, I don’t think he’s a bad YouTuber or anything, but I hope people don’t use his videos as purchasing advice like you might a true review
I’m cool with dunkview, he calls it that for a reason. Some people will still use it as a review, like the original guy I commented to. It’s a shame if someone treats it that seriously, but I don’t think Dunkey is out there pretending to tell you the grand worth of games, it’s, in my eyes, obviously enough comedy.
That being said, not even the zombie game video was called a dunkview, that was just… A video. So some people will use anything as a review, I suppose

If that’s a review our terminology is getting a little… Loose

I don’t disagree with either of you. But what do we call it? A riff track?
